Drill Presses Session 8
Drilling Machines • Probably first mechanical device developed • Principle of rotating tool to make hole • One of most common and useful machines in industry • Come in several types and sizes • From hand-fed to computer-controlled Shop Tools and Techniques
Drill Press • Drilling machine • Spindle • Turns drill to advance into work (hand or automatically) • Work table • Holds workpiece rigidly in place as hole drilled • Used primarily to produce holes in metal • Other operations: tapping, reaming, boring, counterboring, countersinking, spot-facing Shop Tools and Techniques
Standard Operations • Drilling • Operation of producing hole byremoving metal from solid massusing twist drill • Countersinking • Operation of producing taperedor cone-shaped enlargementto end of hole Shop Tools and Techniques
Standard Operations • Reaming • Operation of sizing and producingsmooth, round hole from previously drilled or bored hole • Boring • Truing and enlarging hole by means of single-point cutting tool Shop Tools and Techniques
Standard Operations • Tapping • Cutting internal threads in hole with cutting tool called tap • Counterboring • Enlarging top of previouslydrilled hole to given depthto provide square shoulder for head of bolt or capscrew Shop Tools and Techniques
Standard Operations • Spot-Facing • Smoothing and squaring surface around hole to provide seat for head of cap screw or nut • Boring bar fitted with double-edged cuttingtool • Pilot section on endto fit into existing hole Shop Tools and Techniques
Principal Types of Drilling Machines • Wide variety of drill presses • Size of drill press may be designated in different ways by different companies • Some state size as distance from center of spindle to column of machine • Others state size by diameter of largest circular piece that can be drilled in center Shop Tools and Techniques
Sensitive Drill Press Parts • Hand feed lever • Controls downfeedpressure • Feel the pressure • Manufactured in bench and floor model • Four main parts • Base, column, tableand drilling head Shop Tools and Techniques
Sensitive Drill Press Parts • Base • Provides stability for machine • Cast iron with holes to be bolted to table or bench • Slots or ribs in base allow work-holding device or workpiece to be fastened • Column • Accurate cylindrical post that fits in base • Table may be adjusted any point (base to head) • Drill press head mounted near top Shop Tools and Techniques
Sensitive Drill Press Parts • Table • Round or rectangle shaped • Used to support workpiece to be machined • Surface 90º to column (move around) • Drilling Head • Mechanism used to revolve cutting tool • Spindle: round shaft holds cutting tool • Quill: houses spindle Shop Tools and Techniques

Upright Drilling Machine • Larger and heavier • Differences from sensitive-type drill • Equipped with gearbox for variety of speeds • Spindle may be advanced by: hand lever, handwheel, and automatically by feed mechanism • Table raised or lowered by mechanism • Some have reservoir in base for coolant storage Shop Tools and Techniques

Radial Drill • Sometimes called radial-arm drill • Advantages of this machine • Larger and heavier work may be machined • Drilling head raised or lowered • Drilling head moves rapidly to any desired location while workpiece remains clamped • More power • Head may swivel so holes can be drilled on angle Shop Tools and Techniques

Radial Drill Parts • Base • Heavy, box-type, ribbed cast iron or welded steel • Used to bolt machine to floor and provide coolant reservoir • Table may be bolted to base for small work • Column • Upright cylindrical member fitter to base • Supports radial arm at right angles Shop Tools and Techniques
Radial Drill Parts • Radial arm • Attached to column • May be raised and lowered by means of power-driven elevating screw • Supports drive motor and drilling head • Drilling head • Mounted on arm and moved along length of arm by traverse handwheel • Drill spindle may be raised or lowered Shop Tools and Techniques
